Joanne Krigor

Joanne Krigor of Schnecksville passed away on Sunday, August 24, 2025. She was born in Allentown on October 18, 1947 to the late Dolores (Richardson) Krigor and Joseph Krigor. Joanne graduated from Quakertown High School in 1965 and then attended East Stroudsburg College where she graduated with her teacher's degree. She was an English teacher for 30 years with the Quakertown School District. In additional she was a girls' field hockey coach for several years.

Joanne was an avid Phillies baseball fan. She held a season ticket for the Sunday home games for nearly 40 years. She enjoyed going on the Phillies vacations and to ballpakrs in the other states as part of a Phillies fan group trip. Joanne enjoyed spending time with her good friends who were also Phillies fans.

Her compassion for all of the animals at the "animals in distress" shelter led her to adopt several dogs from the facility. She called them her "puppies" although they were quite large dogs. Her last dog, Anya, is gone, but she still would go to the shelter to visit with the other dogs waiting for adoption.

Joanne is survived by her sister-in-law, Eileen Kelly; and a niece, Tina Rikli. She is predeceased by her parents and brother Tim Krigor.

All are invited on Thursday, September 4 to Naugle Funeral & Cremation Service, 135 W. Pumping Station Rd., Quakertown, PA 18951 for a visitation from 10-11am, and a memorial service at 11am. Interment will follow at Quakertown Union Cemetery.
